Goldfish don't pair up. Male meets female, they breed, end of relationship. Their behavior towards each other won't indicate who is what sex until they've hit breeding age and are in spawning mode.

what do you mean by spawning? and if ever it get pregnant how many are they? i mean when release? and is it on egg? do i need to seperate it?

Yeah, the more you by the higher your chances of having a female. The method you describe does work for species that pair up, such as cichlids.

Spawning is the process by which they reproduce; externally, outside the body.
